Sam and I have been running around like headless chickens trying to get the house sorted for the past week. Life has still gone on though, luckily I had a few photos in my phone to remind me that was so. We have been to the Muny twice, to see Into the Woods (not as good as we thought it would be) and Beauty and the Beast (best this year, maybe ever). We saw this hawk on a light in Forest Park on our way over to the Muny.
Maggie has still been horse riding. It's horribly hot out there at the moment and the horse flies are terrible. Even Maggie isn't as keen on going as she usually is. Her teacher says that she is doing pretty well and should be able to move on to a higher level before too long.
We moved everything out of our old house last Wednesday. We left the cats til last. Ferdy had nowhere to sit but at the bottom of the stairs. Cleo was harder to find. In the absence of furniture, she buried herself behind the sink in the laundry room. I had to pull out the washing machine to get to her and then reach in as far as I could get and drag her out
Our furniture wasn't delivered to our new house until Thursday, so we stayed at the Chase on Wednesday night. The kids absolutely loved it. We walked down to the CWE and had fish and chips at Dressell's and ice cream at Jeni's. What a perfect evening. We got an upgrade to a 2 room suite, it was very nice.
We ate breakfast at the Chase, Maggie doesn't look too happy about it, but looks can be deceptive!!!!!
We have a lovely new fridge in our kitchen. Apparently Maggie (by measuring size) thinks it's acceptable to close the freezer door with her foot!!!!
When I was gone last week, we had all the pipets recalibrated in the lab. Apparently, John and Shannon think I have a problem with ownership!!!! Things like this make me so glad I have my job.
